About Kimberly
Her approach is direct and practical. Sessions focus on clear goals and interactive problem solving. She uses methods that help people change unhelpful thoughts, build skills for strong relationships, and manage intense emotions.

How her approaches guide online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships affect current bonds and trust. It helps people understand patterns with caregivers and rebuild safer, more reliable connections. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact; it uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and to reduce anxiety, depression, or panic symptoms. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Kimberly will work with each person to identify goals and try methods that match those goals. She adjusts techniques over time based on what helps most, and she invites feedback so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Many people find that the same therapeutic tools used in office sessions translate well to online meetings, enabling skills practice and problem solving between appointments.
